WMT -- New dividend play

WMT will go ex-dividend on 3/8 for $0.52. My expiration date is before the ex-dividend date, but it seemed like a good way to capture a little premium before the actual dividend play. If it does get exercised, great. I'll do it again. If not exercised, I'll hopefully be able to get a good price on a new call next week.
